فُرِّقَ بَيْنَ الْكِنَايَةِ وَالْمَجَازِ
A distinction is drawn between kināyah and majāz.
One account describes kināyah as movement from a concomitant to what it implies: the strap's length leads to a person's height. Majāz is described as moving from the primary term to a connected result: rain (ghayth) may be used for vegetation, or lion (asad) for a courageous human.
This comparison shows a difference in the route of interpretation, but it should not obscure the more fundamental contrast involving the permissibility or exclusion of literal intention.
